I'm referring to the trend of posts criticizing (via memes) twitter screenshots. https://lemmy.world/post/1348807 https://sopuli.xyz/post/1213803 https://lemm.ee/post/1007393

it is essentially echoing ideas as old as twitter/reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/unpopularopinion/comments/jeyscl/a_twitter_screenshot_is_not_a_meme/

I actually made the image and started the whole thing with this now-deleted comment under the og post:

I only meant to post it as a comment inside his post because I knew what happened would happen, but someone else grabbed it and posted it on the main feed. I had fun watching it happen though!
